  • Opening widest beaver dam EVER!
    It was real monster. A lot of grass and clay in the structure. Surprisingly there wasn't any sticks. This place is hard to see from the public road. That's the reason maybe why it wasn't removed or drained yet.
    Enjoy!

    Hey Papa. I liked that you put drone footage at the beginning to orient where the dam was and the area upstream. It gave good perspective. And the drone footage afterwards, and you see, the water in the field behind the dam, cleared out and drained. Breaking that dam did make a very noticeable difference in the level of water dropping behind it. Happy Weekend !! We are sitting at (3c) right now in Montreal, at 12:09 pm Friday.

      Massive amount of water drop. First day looked like a waterfall. Second day you managed to make it look as intended. Moving water. No standing there. Quite a job. Those beavers, certainly have a way of containing water. Impressive on both your sides. Do they ever trap and relocate beavers to other areas? Like you said, must be quite alot of beavers in that particular area to build dam 33 feet long. ♥️👍♥️👍♥️🪵🦫🪵🦫🪵🦫🪵🦫🪵

    What a monster of a dam ,It will take a long tome to drain this one with all of it's backed up water ,this latest video is one of your best yet getting us right down in the action ,digging in that mud is backbreaking work been there done that .I was watching your drone shot of this dam down stream and it didn't look like it could carry the amount of water you released a very irregular canal down stream at best ,Ken you did a awesome Job of releasing this dam. The Big problem it just the years of neglect of keeping the canals clean they would drain batter and faster If they were clean even with Beaver dams. The second action action was the topper on this one ,the log the beavers put in the rear of the dam to hold the mud is incredibly smart. Ken this probably deserves a third day revisit ,to cut that log out of the dam

    That beaver dam had accumulated a lot of silt that totally strengthened their beginning dam. Taking it out is a multi-day effort by one person. I think you're right about getting a tractor in there because of the land there. One man isn't enough of a difference on this one. It takes a long time for one guy to mess up that part of the stream flow.
